Not far away, a tall, snow-white horse stood in the sky. On the back of the horse, riding a young man wearing a brocade robe, he had handsome eyebrows and a faint smile on his face.

"Seventh Prince?"

Both Prime Minister Wei and Qin Donghai were startled, and then immediately knelt on the ground, "I have seen the Seventh Prince."

"No gift."

The young man smiled slightly and jumped off the horse, "Ye Chen, I'm here to catch you."

His words were straightforward and unsubtle.

Ye Chen looked at this old friend whom he had met on the boat and fell into memories.

I remember that the last time we met, he was half-step to the Saint Realm.

It is indeed impressive that someone who is two years younger than him can reach the half-step holy realm early.

As for this encounter, Ye Chen could feel that the Seventh Prince was no longer what he used to be.

Speaking of which, he should be the youngest swordsman in Beizhou!

Even younger than myself!

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Prime Minister Wei and Qin Donghai suddenly changed.

The seventh prince, Xia Yu, is your majesty's favorite youngest son.

He has shown outstanding talents since he was a child, was born with great luck, and was passed down by the sword master Mo Yu. It can be said that he has a smooth journey and is loved by thousands of people.

Moreover, at such a young age, he has reached the rank of Young Sword Master.

Therefore, to a certain extent, he can represent His Majesty’s wishes!

He said he was here to catch Ye Chen.

Is this what His Majesty means?

"However, I decided to resist."

The Seventh Prince smiled brightly, "With my status, even if I resist the decree once, my father will not blame me."

After hearing this, Prime Minister Wei and Qin Donghai finally let go of the big stone hanging in their hearts.

Especially Prime Minister Wei, who now has a special status. In the past, he has promoted people of his own lineage to important positions in the court many times. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is criticized by the public, so he is a little worried that His Majesty will beat him for this.

In addition to Ye Chen, what he has done during this period may have touched the taboos of the royal family.

Therefore, when they saw the Seventh Prince coming in person, they were very nervous.

But after the seventh prince said this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"If Your Majesty invites me, I will naturally go."

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Seventh prince, meet old friends and have tea to reminisce about the past?"

"Walk."

The seventh prince was very happy and jumped off the horse.

The two walked side by side into a teahouse in the city.

The boss was very conscientious and came forward to make tea himself.

"Brother Ye, during these days when I was in the palace, the thing I heard the most was your name. Everyone was talking about you, saying that you would definitely be able to reach the top five or three in the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition."

The seventh prince picked up the tea and took a sip.

Then he raised his head and said with a serious face, "But, I am the only one who knows that with your character, you will definitely run for the first place."

"Being first or not first is just a name in vain. What I need is training resources. As for the ranking, I don't care."

Ye Chen chuckled, this was also his true thought.

His foundation in the Xiaoyue Dynasty was still unstable.

If you can be low-key, try to be low-key.

Similar to what happened today, the Kendo Academy really bullied people too much, and with his temper, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

"My father asked me to bring you into the palace. Based on my understanding of my father, I think he will recruit you."

"Why do I resist the order? Because I can see that you are not willing to accept the tiny land of Beizhou."

The Seventh Prince sighed and looked deeply, "After you left the Land of Hundred Kingdoms, you have made rapid progress. In half a year at most, you will be at the top of the entire Beizhou. No matter what kind of benefits my father promised you, you will not

Agree, it happens that my father is also a bit stubborn, in my opinion, it would be better for you not to see me."

Ye Chen nodded, I have to say that the Seventh Prince was very considerate.

Although he is young, he is very sincere in his dealings with others and is very comfortable to get along with.

There are not many twists and turns, let alone calculations.

Although we had only met each other twice, when we chatted, it was like meeting close friends again.

Rather than showing his face outside and competing for honors, Xia Yu prefers to hide his identity, practice everywhere, and practice hard.

He has visited almost all of Beizhou.

The last time he crossed the Sunset Basin, the Seventh Prince had just finished exploring a secret realm.

Therefore, when the two of them talked, they had endless topics to talk about.

A pot of tea, drank quickly.

"Brother Ye, I believe you already know that the arbiter of this Qianlong Ranking dispute is Ye Fusu. He has some connections with you, so I'm worried that he will take action against you during the competition, and your biggest competitor this time

, it’s Ye Feng…”

A look of worry flashed in the seventh prince's eyes.

After Ye Fusu was promoted and killed six times, he had a vague feeling of transcending the Xiaoyue Dynasty.

He is now the number one expert in the Ye clan, and only the clan leader can overwhelm him with his prestige.

"No matter who it is, they can't stop me from taking first place."

Ye Chen smiled calmly. He had such confidence that he didn't need to say anything at all.

The Seventh Prince nodded, and then changed his voice, "Brother Ye, the grievances between you and the Kendo Academy are spreading like wildfire. This time the Kendo Academy lost several sword masters at once, which is a blow to our entire Xiaoyue Dynasty. Father,

There is also this reason for asking me to take you back, but I will not interfere in this matter as a condition..."

He paused deliberately, "How about we compete?"

"good."

Ye Chen nodded.

The Seventh Prince is the descendant of Mo Yu Sword Master, and with the huge resources of the royal family as a backing, he has been going smoothly in the swordsmanship over the years, with almost no setbacks.

He knew that he was no match for Ye Chen, but he also wanted to give it a try.

The two came to the Running Academy and stood facing each other on the martial arts field.

In the academy, many disciples came here, excited and extremely surging.

Being able to witness the two young sword masters fighting with their own eyes would be a great improvement for them.

Even if you only learn a little bit of one trick, it will be enough to digest it for many years.

"Brother Ye, my swordsmanship is a little different from others."

Before taking action, the Seventh Prince looked serious, "When I received the inheritance from Sword Master Mo Yu, everyone in the world was curious about what I learned. In fact, I learned very little, only three simple swords!"

"Three swords?"

Ye Chen was surprised. Back then, when Sword Master Mo Yu dominated Beizhou, he used a complete set of sword techniques.

Never heard of it, only three swords.

"I think it was probably before the death of Senior Sword Master Mo Yu that he suddenly had an epiphany and streamlined his sword skills into three swords. It seems simple, but it is actually inclusive of all things. Once the three swords are released, if you still have the power to fight back, then

That’s why I failed.”

After the seventh prince finished speaking, there was a cold iron holy sword in his hand that exuded a silvery aura.

The sharp breath above gives people a tingling feeling that penetrates deep into the soul.

"Good sword."
